A shot of the Paramount Theatre on Church Street, Downtown Nashville, 1968. The marquee differs from the 1930 photos posted by another member. Not sure when it was changed.

For a parking lot? What an awful waste by short sighted politicians and greedy developers. Board it up and leave it for the next generation if u don’t have the money or imagination for anything but demolition and parking

The Singer store left of center became the Midtown Theatre by 1977, showing x-rated films.
